🔥 Value

Catch explosive plays before they go viral by spotting high-liquidity, low-cap tokens that are already getting Smart Money attention. Great for surfacing asymmetric upside in minutes.

👤 Who Should Use This

• DeFi Degens hunting for 10x tokens early

• Narrative traders riding the next AI or memecoin wave

• Short-term scalpers monitoring 5-minute windows for sharp entries

⚠️ Workflow

1. Go to Token Screener via the homepage or Tokens page.

2. Sort by Liquidity

   • Prioritize tokens where liquidity is >$1M.

   • Check for tokens where liquidity temporarily exceeds market cap — could indicate inefficiencies or accumulation zones.

3. Set Timeframe to 5 or 10 Minutes

   • Useful for real-time or low-timeframe entries.

4. Apply Smart Money Filter

   • Look for tokens with ≥20–30% Smart Money inflows relative to market cap.

5. Use Market Cap Filters

   • Filter by Micro ($0–10M) or Small Cap ($10–50M) depending on risk profile.

6. Apply Narrative Sector Tags (optional)

   • Select sectors like AI, DeSci, or AI Memecoins.

   • Note: Some labels may lag 24h for fresh launches.

7. Search for New Tokens by Age

   • Filter token age by 0–1 days on Solana (or other chains) to catch tokens within hours of launch.

❓When to Use This

💡Pro Tip

• Use “Trending on Nansen” (24H, 7D, 30D tabs) to validate which tokens are consistently gaining traction.
